General NCAA question

[IWasWayOff]

Calipari had his two final fours (Memphis and UMASS) vacated by the NCAA. Lets say he had won the national title at both schools. After they found out about all of the **** he did. Would the runner up then become the "national champion"? Or would Memphis and UMASS be champs, but with a * next to their name?

When a team vacates victories, the teams they beat don't get to add W's. So if the NCAA is consistent - there's no national champ. But I have no confidence at all that the NCAA would be consistent.

 

[RebelBruiser]

But that's the kicker. If Memphis or UMass had won the title in either of those years, the NCAA wouldn't have forced them to vacate their wins.

The NCAA is never going to have a national champion vacate its title because of how bad it would look. Had Chalmers missed the shot, Memphis wouldn't have had to vacate that season. That's the bottom line.

...a third time, i wonder if there will be a major college that would hire him?

their SEC Tourney Championship, does that mean we get it? Hopefully they'll have to FORFEIT, not vacate, then there will be no question that MSU won the 2010 SEC tourney (although there is still the "didn't win it on the court" thing like with MSU's football forfeits in the 1970s).

take a shot. (by "major" do you mean all of D-I or just the power conferences?)

the money and exposure he brought to UMass and Memphis is probably worth it to some school.

if he had 10 FF taken away, theguy puts together the best teams money can buy. As much as I don't like what he's doing at UK if the shoe were on my foot I wouldnt give a <17> what everyone else was saying.
